*PLEASE READ/SIGNAL BOOST*

Monday, July 16th.

My previous, benefit sanction post (please click to read about my situation)  

Hi everyone, I’m Gemma and I desperately need your help. I know that you are all tired of seeing these posts as I am of making them, but I honestly have no other choice. 

Above, is a photo of my bank acct today in the negative due to overdue bills and charges from previous months and I have tried very hard to try and pay it off without success due to my welfare benefits being revoked under the UK’s controversial changes to how benefits are assessed and assigned and due to my mental illnesses. My appeal against this decision was recently denied and with no idea of when my sanction will be lifted it has caused me to struggle with my bill payments and to get groceries/household supplies with absolutely no income and I’ve been drowning in debt because of it, I can’t even afford to to eat. 

Not being able to eat is now a constant thing for me, as I have regularly skipped on eating for the past few weeks in a row now to try and somehow make ends meet and it has taken such a toll on me that a few days ago I was diagnosed with a folic acid deficiency, due to lack of nutrition. I have been prescribed medication to help but with this overdrawn balance I can’t afford anything, all including my rent due at the end of the month and a missed payment could result in eviction. 

If anyone could spare any amount to help me, even if it’s just £1/$1/€1, it would literally save my life and, sharing definitely helps just as much as donations. Nobody has to donate if they can’t or don’t want to, I know we’re all struggling. Thank you for your help 💖

I think that people forget that condoms protect you from more than just pregnancy.

And there is no morning after pill for HIV.

ACTUALLY THERE IS.

It’s called post exposure prophylaxis.

http://www.who.int/hiv/topics/prophylaxis/en/

If you’ve had unprotected sex and are afraid of possibly being at risk for HIV, please go to the emergency room and ask about POST EXPOSURE PROPHYLAXIS.


Works for up to 48 – 72 hours after exposure to HIV.

BOOST!

I wouldn’t need this but this is actually really cool and I’d like to share it in case anyone might need it.

If you see this on your dash REBLOG REBLOG REBLOG!!!! You could save a life

SAVE A LIFE 🔃🔃🔃🔃🔃🔃🔃🔃

There’s a FDA approved daily medication called Truvada, or the PrEP treatment, that is 92-99% effective in preventing the contraction of HIV.

Private insurance and Medicaid cover it. You can also get it for free in a lot of high risk cities like Atlanta, NY, and San Fransisco.

It’s the same cocktail they give to medical professionals who have had contaminated needle sticks/blood splashes from potentially infected blood. Very effective.

BOOST  !!!!!

Please boost. You may think you’ll never need it, but you never know what might happen in your life

Signal boost!

If you live in New York State, and are the victim of a sexual assault, the State will pay for your HIV prophylaxis drugs if your insurance won’t, or if you don’t have insurance.  Also, going for an exam after an assault here in NYS DOES NOT REQUIRE YOU TO FILE A POLICE REPORT!!!

You only file a report if you WANT to.  And assuming you’re over the age of 12, nobody but you and the Sexual Assault Nurse Examiner need to even know you showed up.  This is especially relevant for people with abusive spouses, or families who put them at risk for honor killings if they’ve been ‘defiled’.  If you’ve been attacked, and you need medical attention, and you think you might have been exposed to HIV, then you can absolutely get this medical care without risk of further harm or abuse here.
